Who Benefits From Outpatient IV Infusion?
You may benefit from our services if your physician orders IV infusion treatment for the following medical conditions or needs:
- Blood disorders such as anemia
- Dehydration
- Gastrointestinal disorders such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis
- Autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis or lupus
- Infections
- Malnutrition
Doctors may prefer IV infusion for delivering medication when a condition is severe or when the treatment needs to be fast-acting. Administering treatment directly into a patient’s veins is the fastest method for circulating medication or fluids throughout the body.
Notably, IV infusion also bypasses the digestive tract, which can slow treatment delivery and impact a medicine’s strength due to the filtering that naturally occurs with digestion.
Intravenous Treatments We Offer
The outpatient IV infusion services at Carrus Health include:
Serious infections require quick treatment delivered at full strength. This usually means skipping the oral-based medicines and receiving an injection or IV therapy. Antibiotics or other medications (depending on a patient’s needs) may be administered intravenously.
A blood transfusion involves using an IV to deliver donor blood to a patient. It may be required after blood loss due to trauma, medical conditions such as hemophilia, or disorders that result in anemia (a lack of healthy red blood cells) such as leukemia or kidney disease.
Fluid replacement is required for severe dehydration, and the fastest way to replace fluids is intravenously, which circulates water and electrolytes throughout the body immediately.
